How to Set Up the GridWorld Case Study in JCreator
Download from AP Central or collegeboard.com the zipped file that contains 
GridWorld's code and copy the GridWorldCode folder from the zipped file into 
a folder of your choice (e.g., into C:\APCS) to obtain 
C:\APCS\GridWorldCode).  This folder contains gridworld.jar and several Java 
source files in the framework and projects subfolders.  Keep all these files 
intact, never change them, and never place anything else into the 
GridWorldCode folder or its subfolders. 

Create a folder for keeping your GridWorld work (e.g., C:\mywork\GridWorld). 

In JCreator, create a blank workspace located in C:\mywork\GridWorld and add 
an empty project to that workspace (see the Workspaces and Projects section 
in How to use JCreator). 


Add C:\APCS\GridWorldCode\projects\firstProject\BugRunner.java or 
another "runner" class to the project (go to Project/Add files... or click 
on the Add Files button, navigate to the desired folder and add the desired 
file. 


Add C:\AP\GridWorld\Code\gridworld.jar file to the project (see the Adding 
jar Files to Projects section in How to use JCreator).  You can simply add 
the jar file to the project but it is better to define and name a library 
containing gridworld.jar once, and check it as a "required library" in each 
new GridWorld project. 


Compile and run your project.
